I am thinking about a list of favorite and interesting maps that you could suggest to new players.
At the moment noobs either play the default maps or they pick a map from the map pages or map packs randomly. While most pro players know at least some maps that are worth playing(i don't mean that maps that won't be in the list are not worth being played at all) noobs have to try out each one on their own.
I am not sure how many maps should be in the list and if there should be a fix number of maps in the list or if the maps have to fulfill some criteria, and if there is a fix number how to count what is a map and what is a mode of a map. At the moment i have a list of 64 possible candidates but i could have missed some important maps from .rar files + 15 race maps. Imho race maps should be counted separately. You usually don't play them as often as other maps but race maps are most fun if you don't know them already. So i think all race maps are worth being played at least once if you like racing.
at some time this list could be implemented in the maplist system
you can scroll though all maps (except the excluded ones) here:
http://gta2dare.omnitude.net/maplist/li ... mode=exist
there wont be a voting at the moment but you can opt-in and opt-out maps by posting. The maps where some people opt-in and some opt-out will be voted on later.
thats my idea of that kind of a list and how to make it. If you think it should be done differently or i forgot to mention something raise your voice.

Mandang's Water Town. It's fun trying to be the first to get the tanks.
Rocket Wars Forever crashes with more than 2 players, so we usually play the original Rocket Wars

Re: Top ?0 Map list
added.
btw, do you both really want to throw out 2/3 of the maps in this list?
This list is not meant as a popularity chart but as a guide for people which maps to look at. that could be done in a separate list.
Sure you can choose 20, thats why i added the option. I just want that you really go through the list. Before making the list i also thought 20 would be enough.

Re: Top ?0 Map list
Great work to catalogue this stuff. I guess we're in a category versus tagging situation. If you separate race maps then you may need to separate a lot more. I think the fundamental nature of the gameplay in each map is the key.
Suggested categories are covered in detail in a topic by Razor...am at work and already spent too long on this message to find that.
Top 10 Maps
You'll probably play a maximum of 5 levels in a day with a new player, as you play them a few times to help them learn. 10 levels would give about a week of gameplay, which is enough to get a new player up to an adequate level.
I think it's the obvious choice due to popular culture as well.
Please Add
Or rename "Race Maps" to "Driving Maps"?
Some items have a question mark. It's hard to say how big a map must be to feel more like a city than a deathmatch level.
These require communication and co-operation between players. Often new players don't even know how to use F10 or don't RTFM. So they simply don't understand these levels, get frustrated and ruin it for any other players.

Re: Top ?0 Map list
Haha, somehow i felt that this will go into 2 completely different directions. You can see that even in the votings. But there might be a solution:
Yesterday Gustavob came up with a funny idea to made a periodic system of Maps. Google for "periodic system" and look at the auto suggestions. There exist a bunch of ridiculous versions. In the right form it could be not only a creative way of presenting the maps but also an effective one. It allows to make groups, to emphasis and to hold over 100 elements. I already roughly formed some groups.
